More clay projects

As I've been working I've done more than I've shown.... here are some other things I've made in the first two weeks of working with polymer clay:

Translucent clay with gold leaf on the left(salt?) and green glitter in translucent clay on the right(pepper?):

This stemmed votive was covered in silver clay then textured. After baking I applied acrylic paint and flatback crystals. It needs a smaller candle without the metal cup:

 This  small dish is covered in a checkerboard cane:

 These are supposed to be Marshmallow Peeps. My husband says they look just like them. I got this idea from a Polymer Clay TV video. Kira made the little bunny Peeps and I think I know why as it was difficult to form the Peep shape in the clay. These were my first tries. I'll be making more:

 These pink buttons look much better now that they have been painted with ink to bring out the pattern:

 Here are a bunch of miscellaneous pieces. From the upper left corner going around: a future pendant, left over from a project I haven't taken a picture of yet; then some tubular purple beads. One looks like a crayon wrapper; a flat heart, two nice pink beads I'm going to try to polish; a translucent disk with a silver band; 4 purple and black beads, an odd silver pendant... needs a backing I think:

A translucent disk with home-made beach glass embedded.The glass was from a green wine bottle and had many thin slivers. Just a thin layer of clay on top:

More as it happens.
